"Uh..." Qing Yi was a bit embarrassed, not knowing what the elderly liked either, so she turned to Wen Xiao’ai, who had been excited the whole trip, unable to sit still, occasionally flipping through the bag of lollipops and snacks she held in her arms.
"Miss Wen, what does your grandmother like?"
"My grandma likes the best." Wen Xiao’ai looked up and replied.
Qing Yi smiled, "I know, but I was asking if she has any hobbies or favorite activities."
"Hmm..." Wen Xiao’ai zipped up her backpack and thought for a mont, "My grandma doesn’t have any particular hobbies. She’s usually very busy, but when she has free ti, she likes to go have tea with Granny Huashen."
"Busy? How old is your grandmother?"
"My grandma is three thousand... My grandma and Grandpa Jun are about the sa age."
"At that age and still busy? What about your parents, Miss Wen?"
"Drive your car."
Jun Moyan’s voice, tinged with displeasure, rang out as he looked over at Wen Xiao’ai, slightly worried.
However, Wen Xiao’ai was not the least bit saddened by the ntion of her parents she had never t and who were no longer present.
Her face still bore a bright smile, "My parents went to another place. My grandma says it’s very beautiful there."
Qing Yi, realizing belatedly what Wen Xiao’ai ant, understood she had only ntioned having a grandmother and a childhood sweetheart brother at ho. Qing Yi had thought the parents were just away, but it turned out...
"I’m sorry."
Qing Yi felt a bit uncomfortable.
"It’s okay. My grandma doesn’t really have anything to be busy with, but she is busy."
Wen Xiao’ai steered the topic back to her Clan Leader grandmother to spare Qing Yi the embarrassnt.
The Clan Leader grandmother had to manage such a large clan, tending to both big and small matters. Normally it seed she didn’t have much to do, but she was always busy.
Wen Xiao’ai finished speaking and looked at Jun Moyan, who had been watching her. She leaned close to his ear and whispered, "My grandma might co to the Human Realm to deal with those Demon Clan issues. When my grandma cos to the Human Realm, you can give her the present then. It’s not convenient to bring it now."
"Hmm,"
Jun Moyan responded.
Actually, ever since the day he expressed the desire to visit Xiaoguai’s family, he had been contemplating what gift to give. That was Xiaoguai’s dearest person, and he couldn’t afford to be negligent. But even after nearly a month of thought, he still had no idea what gift would please her.
Let alone the fact that she was a demon and would likely not care for such mundane items, having lived for three thousand years, there wasn’t much she hadn’t seen. He feared that even the most precious and rare items would not interest her at her age.
Xiaoguai often said her Clan Leader grandma cherished her the most. He thought that no gift could win her grandmother’s heart better than taking good care of Xiaoguai.
An hour later
Airport
"So when will the three of you return?" Qing Yi asked.
"It’s hard to say."
"Are you sure you don’t need to co along?"
"No need."
"Alright then, have a safe trip."
"Hmm,"
After responding, Jun Moyan proceeded to take Wen Xiao’ai through security.
As they went through the security check, the female officer’s hands roved over Jun Moyan’s body. Wen Xiao’ai watched with wide eyes, stomping her feet fiercely twice, almost losing her temper.
Jun Moyan, who greatly disliked being touched by strangers, frowned in resistance. Seeing Wen Xiao’ai’s jealous expression, however, brightened his mood instantly, and waves of pride and satisfaction washed over him.
Wen Xiao’ai, seeing Jun Moyan appearing to willingly allow the touching, was livid. After passing through security, she pinched his waist hard twice before her anger subsided.
